I recently bought this angustidens tooth while on a trip. It wasn’t extremely expensive or too good to be true, and as far as I can tell is legitimate. I’ve never bought from this seller before, and I am typically wary of vendors I have no experience with. Im not super knowledgeable when it comes to shark teeth, so I wanted a second opinion on the legitimacy of this tooth. Thank you for any help you can provide!

Looks real, seems like the root has a lot of damage though.

Yeah, the root is definitely pretty worn. The enamel and serrations are pretty nice though, which is what made me buy it. Thanks for your input!

I doubt anyone would bother faking a tooth in that condition

It looks absolutely real to me with a very nice crown - a good score!
